Isabella Marie Schiaffino
August 24, 2004 - March 24, 2026
Isabella “Bella” Marie Schiaffino, 21, of Lodi, CA passed away in her sleep on March 24, 2026.
Bella was a kind, loving soul, who lived more in her short life than many of us will live in our long lives. A woman of devout faith and conviction, she loved teaching Children’s Church and sharing her love of Christ with those around her.
Fueled by a compassionate heart, Bella found true purpose in caring for others. She was only one year away from earning her bachelor’s degree in nursing - a path reflecting her dedication to help those in need.
She had many different passions ranging from horseback riding, tractors, shark conservation, boating on the Delta, riding her dirtbike, driving her car, shopping, babysitting, Sonic cherry limeade slushes, pickles, Cheez-Its, and cooking with her family.
From Disneyland to China and everywhere in between, Bella was a lifelong traveller who loved planning vacations. Lake Tahoe in particular held a special place in her heart.
Bella will be remembered for her coy smile, sneaky sense of humor, wry wit, and how she was a little bit devious in the best possible way.
Bella is survived by her parents, Tina & Emil Brodston and Mason & Jennifer Schiaffino; her siblings, Nash, Emmalina, Chance, and Caitlyn; her aunts and uncles, Roger, Danny, Kim, Maggie, Melvin, Josh, Emily, Steven, and Elizabeth; her grandparents, Vera, Gigi, Pat, Mary, Dean, Dan, Paula, Margaret, Carolyn, Lori, and Robin; along with countless other loved ones. She is preceded in death by Nana Peggy, Papa Clay, and Papa Marc.
